The sixth reflection of the Seven Weeks for Water 2025 series of the WCC Ecumenical Water Network is written by Prof. Mathew Koshy of Church of South India.  In this reflection, inspired by the Psalm104, he argues that the life giving resource, the water of life, plays a vital role in the “divine choreography” with other elements in God’s creation to sustain life. He then invites us to renew our participation in the “cosmic dance of life”—where water flows freely, justly, and joyfully.  Furthermore, he illustrates the Church of South India’s good practices in this endeavour.

The fifth reflection of the Seven Weeks for Water 2025 series of the WCC Ecumenical Water Network is written by Phil Hildtich, with inputs from Sarah Larkin and Amanda Munoz from the PAAHC (Prayer & Action Against Hunger Coalition). He focuses on artwork chosen for this year’s Weekend of Prayer and Action against Hunger campaign. Linking climate change and melting glaciers with food production and hunger, he reminds us to be mindful of the food that we take for granted and draws our attention to the “10 Commandments for Food.” He also highlights the Christian witness to address hunger in times of climate change, being inspired by Jesus, who always had a concern for feeding the hungry.

The first reflection of the Seven Weeks for Water 2025 series of the WCC Ecumenical Water Network is written by Hella Tangu, a student of climate change studies from Uganda. In this reflection, she draws our attention to the importance of the glaciers, which are often not considered as a source of freshwater. She then challenges us to be mindful of how we use water, to take care of this precious resource as stewards of God’s creation, and to protect the glaciers, the ultimate source of freshwater on earth.
